A Hop, A Skip, And A Launch is a game made for the Artist's Tavern Game Jam in March of 2025. In this game, the player can only move by launching themselves at a 45 degree angle, where the strength of the launch is based on their timing with a scroll bar at the bottom of the screen. The theme of this jam was Extremes, which this game embodies by having the scroll bar tend towards the extreme ends, almost completely skipping the middle portion. This makes really long or really short jumps easy, but moderate sized jumps almost impossible.

Hope you enjoy!
